§ MR. REGINALD LUCAS (Portsmouth)Mr. Speaker, I beg to draw your attention to the circulation amongst Members this morning of a letter which has been published in The Times on the subject of a recent incident in the Grenadier Guards. It is an es parte statement on a case pending and makes 400 serious allegations against officers in high positions. In these circumstances, and seeing that those officers are not in a position to protect themselves and make a counter statement, I desire to ask you whether this proceeding is consistent with the privileges of Parliament.
§ MR. SPEAKERI do not see what the suggestion of privilege is. There is no breach of privilege.
